We are all bored. No good TV show to watch. No good movie to watch. So, My cousin, Ate Ludy invited us to go to Mt. Hulog (as they call the place). Excited ang lahat. Yehey! The whole gang are ready. From Brgy. Caingin, Maragondon, we drove to Bonifacio Shrine. According to Ate Ludy, the shrine itself is located in the mountain of Mt. Nagpatong. Hindi namin namalayan, nasa bundok na pla kami. Haha..

For 20php, you will able to tour the whole place. Okay na din. :)

My friend and I decided to visit this place, La Mesa Eco Park. It was a sunny Saturday morning. It was indeed a perfect time to have a walked on this mini forest (that's how I describe this place).  I was amazed on how a place like this be in Metro Manila. Wow! yun lang nasabi ko :) . First time ko eh and the fact na puro building nakikita ko sa Metro. I grew up in Manila so napapa Wow ako every time I see something green. Just like this. The place is very relaxing. It is a good reward for me bilang stress ka sa work the whole week. Actually, you can do many activities like rapelling, zipline plus boating. Sayang lang I never tried any of those. But, I will definitely try it once I go back.  For your guide, here's the park map.

To get there via commute/public transportation:


From EDSA (Taft Aven to Quezon Aven)
-Take Mrt, get off at Quezon Aven. Station
-Take FX/Shuttle to SM Fairview or Fairview Caltex (you can also take the SM Fairview/Zabarte/Sapang Palay Buses or jeepneys
-Get off at Wilson Street
-Take East Fairview Tricycle to Eco Park
-or-
Take the bus with the signboards: SM fairview/zabarte/Sapang Palay and get off at Wilson street and take tricycle to Eco Park.

And Here's some of the photos. Enjoy!

So refreshing.. Isn't it? :)



I forgot how many steps this is.. Hmmm... a hundred plus ata. Not sure.



Nice view on top. Right?

You can opt to stay on there nipa hut to rest after a long walk.
